“…In their study, Leroux et al attempted to investigate the effect of nursing intervention on the quality of life and self-efficacy of the patients with migraine. They showed that these interventions proved useful and positive (38). In a systematic review study, Castillo-Bueno et al emphasized that nursing interventions can reduce pain (23), which is consistent with the results of the current study.…”

Background: Patients with migraine always experience from pain. For this reason, the present study aimed at investigating the effect of adaptive stability model, as an indigenous model developed in Iran, on the headache of patients with migraine. Methods: This was a semi-experimental study with post-and pre-intervention groups. The sample size composed of patients with migraine in the city of Ilam, who were assigned randomly to the experimental group (31 patients) and control group (33 patients). The tools used in this study included demographic features questionnaire, a checklist showing the duration and frequency of pain, and a pain evaluation tool. For the test group, the interventions were performed according to the adaptive stability care model, which was developed in Iran. The SPSS V. 16 software, descriptive statistical tests (mean and standard deviation) and inferential tests (T-test and ANOVA) were used to analyze the data. Results: Before the intervention, there was no significant difference between the mean severity, hours, and frequency of headache in the experimental and control groups (P > 0.05). However, after the intervention, the severity, headache, and headache hours of the patients in the experimental group was reduced compared to the control group and the reduction was statistically significant (P < 0.001). Conclusions: Given the fact that the implementation of the adaptive stability model, as a non-pharmacological and less expensive approach has proved to be significant, it is highly recommended for reducing pain in patients with migraine.

“…Limited task delegation was reported in some countries because of legislative limitations. However, different levels of nurse engagement in patient management were observed within the same country, suggesting the opportunity for every network to re-evaluate the role of nurses in caring for patients with migraine 8.…”

Introduction:Migraine is one of the leading reasons for patient access to neurology services. Waiting lists can limit patients’ ability to access specialist care, even at specialised headache centres. Our study aims to investigate this issue, identify possible root causes and also document existing good practices.Methods:We conducted a study in a sample of 28 headache centres and their networks in six countries by performing in-depth interviews with 166 healthcare professionals.Results:The waiting list for new patients and follow-up visits exceeded 3 months in 61% and 36% of centres, respectively. Patients waited on average 6 months for their first consultation, with peaks beyond 12 months. Five areas were identified as common rootcauses:(1) inappropriate referral of patients with low-frequency episodic migraine or patients under acute treatment, (2) lack of triage/priority allocation, (3) limited resource availability or resources dedicated to migraine, (4) limited delegation of activities, and (5) suboptimal management of follow-up visits.Conclusion:Our work highlights a gap between best practices for migraine management proposed in the literature and current real-world practice. Guidelines recommend a network approach to bridge different levels of care. Based on our findings, consistency in practice amongst specialised headache clinics and integration with primary care represent an important area for further improvement.

The objective is to explore the application effect of comprehensive nursing intervention in prevention of lower extremity deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism in urological patients undergoing laparoscopic and robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery. From April 2019 to April 2020, 200 patients who received urological laparoscopic surgery and robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery were selected. According to the random number table method, they were divided into control group and observation group, 100 cases in control group and 100 cases in observation group. Patients in control group received routine nursing, while patients in observation group received comprehensive nursing intervention. The skin condition, swelling, pain, and occurrence of deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism of lower extremities in 2 groups were observed. The experimental results showed that the lower limb swelling, lower limb pain, and lower limb deep vein thrombosis in the control group were significantly higher than those in the observation group, but all patients were cured and discharged after taking effective symptomatic treatment and nursing measures in time. In the control group, pulmonary embolism occurred in 3 patients, all of whom died. There was no significant difference in skin changes of lower limbs ( P > 0.05 ), and there were significant differences in other skin changes ( P < 0.05 ). It proved that comprehensive nursing intervention can effectively prevent the formation of lower extremity deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism in urological patients undergoing laparoscopic and robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery with high-risk factors.

A Nursing Intervention Increases Quality of Life and Self‐Efficacy in Migraine: A 1‐Year Prospective Controlled Trial

Abstract: A nursing intervention can lower the impact of migraines on the patient's life. The improvement in the HIT-6 score in this study was correlated with improvements in self-efficacy.
